Boy's Day

Mommy has been very busy this week making banners for the Missions Banquet at church.  And they are very nice.  Mommy is so creative.  So, anyway, they have to be done before tomorrow.

Plus, sometimes I like to give Mommy a break from me and sometimes I wish I had more time to spend with Daddy.  Therefore, we declared today a boy's day.

Me and Daddy played and read and listened to music and went to a basketball game and watched some college football.

With Daddy, I usually like to play with my balls or my cars or my blocks.  But, today, I was really into the wooden train set that spells my name.  I don't know why; I just was.

Grandaddy and Aunt Cathy got me some new books at the Scholastic Book Fair at church the other night, so I have new books to read, although that doesn't stop me from reading the old ones.  Actually, we don't so much read the old ones as much as I identify things on the page when asked.  I'm a smarty pants like that.

And Daddy has turned me onto OutKast.  I like their beats and especially enjoyed dancing to "Bombs Over Baghdad."  What?  Are you laughing?  We should have a dance off.  That'll teach you.

Then, me and Daddy went to watch his students play basketball.  The girls were playing when we got there, so we just found a spot in the stands.  Between games, though, we followed the girls to our school section and sat there while the boys played.  I know the girls were supposed to be watching the game, but that didn't stop me from distracting them.

After missing my nap during the basketball game, I was tuckered out.  I held out, though, until I couldn't stay awake any longer.  And I went from full speed to slamming on the brakes.  My nap my have been late, but it sure was long.

I was so excited when Mommy got home shortly after I woke up.  She missed me so, and I missed her, too.  In fact, just two minutes before she got home, I started saying, "Momma."

It was a good day!

Sid!

Mommy went to the movies (to the movies!) with Aunt Sandra, who is in town from Atlanta visiting.

That means me and Daddy are having boy's night!

Anyway, we were watching some cartoons online (I love online cartoons, by the way) and we found this cool song from 'Sid the Science Kid.'

Boy's Day

Me and Daddy have had a fun day today, especially since the medicine has worked its magic.

First, we played. Then, we napped.

And, then, we needed to get out of the house. So, we walked to the zoo to see the sea lion show and they made me giggle. We stopped on the way at Cafe Eclectic for a pastry and I fell asleep on the way home.

Now, we're playing and waiting on Mommy to get home.

Sick Again, But...

Yep, I'm sick again, although I was fine when we went to the doctor on Tuesday. So we had to go back yesterday. I have another case of double ear infections, plus a little viral infection, plus a bit of conjunctivitis (that's pink eye for the laity).

Good news, though.

(1) It's all connected, so I only have to take the one medicine. And it's already starting to work.

(2) Me and Daddy are having another Boy's Day today.

(3) Grandma and Pa are coming tonight.

Staying Home

Yesterday, the day after my birthday, I woke up sick. Daddy had orientation, so Mommy stayed home with me.

Today, I am feeling better, but not enough to go to school. Daddy was free today, so we're having a boys day. After some playing and fussing and napping, we walked to the zoo.

It's been so long since the weather has been cool enough to go to the zoo. In fact, I wasn't even walking the last time we went. Well, let me tell you, it's pretty cool when you can walk. Daddy let me walk around the indoor section of the polar bear exhibit and I got to see the bears swim by just above my head. It was so cool!

And I can't wait until the new baby grizzlies get here. They won't be able to make it in the wild because their Mommy was killed. It's very sad, but at least our zoo could take them.

In other news, I think I may have developed a case of pink eye. Yuck! We're going to the doctor as soon as Mommy gets home from work.

Boy's Night, Part the Second

Dear Mommy,

You can rest assured that, while you've been out on the town with the girls, Daddy has taken good care of me. We had fun playing, but I was so tuckered out that Boy's Night did not last long. I perked up for the beginning of my bath, but then started getting sleepy again. It's only been an hour and I'm already going to bed.

Goodnight, Mommy. I'll see you in the morning.

I love you.

Boy's Night

Me and Daddy are going to have a boy's night tonight! I am so excited. What should we do? Mommy is having a girl's night with some friends and she says I can't come. Well, that's just fine. Me and Daddy will have more fun than them anyway. We'll show them.
